Bruno Rodrigo Poveda Zeballos (born 22 October 2003) is a Bolivian professional footballer who plays as a goalkeeper for Jorge Wilstermann.

Club career

Born in Santa Cruz de la Sierra, Poveda joined Jorge Wilstermann's youth sides in 2019, from Blooming. He made his professional debut at the age of 18 on 7 December 2021, coming on as a late substitute for Daniel Sandy in a 3–0 home win over Real Tomayapo.

A third-choice during the 2022 season behind Luis Cárdenas and José Escobar, Poveda featured in his first international match on 28 April 2022, starting in a 3–1 Copa Sudamericana home loss to São Paulo. He became the youngest Bolivian goalkeeper to feature in a continental match, surpassing Luis Galarza's record with The Strongest in 1971.

After spending the 2023 campaign as a backup to Paraguayan Arnaldo Giménez, Poveda became a starter in 2024.

International career

After representing Bolivia at under-20 level in the 2023 South American U-20 Championship, Poveda received his first call up to the full side on 7 June 2023, for two friendlies against Ecuador and Chile. On 16 January 2024, he was included in Antônio Carlos Zago's final 23-man list for the 2024 CONMEBOL Pre-Olympic Tournament.
